Cameras

Blink Cameras
These cameras offer a variety of options, including a doorbell camera, a wired floodlight camera, or a wireless exterior security camera. With a current service fee of just $10 per month, Blink cameras are both cost-effective and user-friendly.

If you prefer, the Ring camera is also a great option—it’s all about personal preference! Please remember, that cameras may only be installed on the exterior of the home.

Mattresses 

Top-Rated Mattresses for Short-Term Rentals (STR)
These two mattresses consistently rank highly for short-term rentals. We have personally used both and recommend either one. We typically choose based on which has the best price at the time of purchase. Both mattresses come conveniently packed in a box, making them easy to deliver and move to the room of your choice.

Guest Amenities 

Providing complimentary shampoo, conditioner, and body soap is a thoughtful touch that enhances your guests’ experience. We recommend refillable dispensers over travel-size products as they are more cost-effective and require less maintenance. While there are many options available, we have found that less expensive dispensers often need frequent replacement. This dispenser is, by far, the best we have used:

To refill your dispenser, here’s one of many great product options:

Mattress & Pillow Covers

One of the most important steps you can take to maintain cleanliness and hygiene is protecting your pillows and mattresses. These covers are 100% waterproof and offer bed bug protection, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience for your guests.

Linens

Duvet Insert Option
If you prefer using duvet covers, the Utopia Down Comforter is an excellent choice for an insert. It’s lightweight, comfortable, and perfect for providing a cozy experience for your guests.

Sheets
We are a big fan of Utopia Brushed Microfiber Sheet Sets. These sheets hold up well over time and are very cost-effective. We have even had guests ask us where we buy our sheets, so they are definitely a hit!

 Towel Recommendations
The type of towels you choose depends on your property, but we highly recommend white towels because they can be easily cleaned and bleached as needed. For most properties, we use the Member’s Mark Commercial Hospitality Towels from Sam’s Club. They are well-made and cost-effective. However, if you have a high-end property that requires a more luxurious feel, you might want to opt for higher-end towels. These work well for most properties, though.

Higher-End Option

If you’re looking for a more luxurious feel for your property, these towels are a fantastic choice. They are soft, absorbent, and perfect for creating a high-end experience for your guests.

      Important Note: While these towels provide a premium touch, it’s essential to consider their thickness. Thicker towels take longer to wash and dry, which can impact your cleaners’ turnaround time. Keep this in mind to ensure efficient property management.

Waffle Shower Curtain

These shower curtains are versatile, durable, and easy to clean. They are also cost-effective and provide a nice aesthetic for your bathroom.


Microfiber Makeup Remover Cloths

These towels are a thoughtful addition to your rental and help protect your regular towels from makeup stains. They also give your property a more professional, hotel-like touch. Guests will appreciate the extra consideration!

Chenille Bath Mats

These bath mats are soft, absorbent, and economical, making them a perfect choice for your bathroom.

Hair Dryer & Bag 

Amazon offers these cute hair dryer bags that are commonly used in hotels. They’re a nice touch to add to your short-term rental, providing an extra level of convenience and care for your guests.

TV Recommendation

These ROKU TVs are fantastic! They come preloaded with most of the apps your guests will use, and they feature a brilliant option called “guest mode.” This feature allows guests to input their dates of stay, and the TV will automatically log them out of all apps when their stay is over. You can even program a custom welcome message and reminders for your guests to see when they turn on the TV.
